"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

as i said...we were in the mountains~



it seems every july
our sky
paints the scene with prettty shades of pink


as we headed out
one mountain was in plain view


basking in
the light of the moon


after a sound night sleep
{arriving at near midnight}
of the river singing softly to each


i walked down by the bed to see
{our pool had dried up...the river has dwindled}


that the
 river was running
 quite low
no longer ranging was thee


i gathered some water
that was truly in need
{though camping pretty rough...one is never without her coffee}


sat down beside this river of mine
and
 wrote down words that sprang to mind


it was but a moment i sat there...just me
before the sound of
two little feet were heard
{but mama...where did it go...how am i going to take a dip in my pool}


soon came another
to check out the view


that wee little face
who is standing above

stopped in their tracks

mama...do you see
a heart for me


with daylight upon us


exploring was calling
{remember how i said the water would dry}


well just walk through this path
and soon you will see


the land that i had been speaking of
opens up
far and wide
for all to see


grassy lands in the front


grand mountains in the back


as we headed back to our little place
one could only help to see
another heart waiting to be


then one wee little eye
so excited by thee
a butterfly mama
well not quite sweetie


with the heat of the sun
quickly coming upon us
 a new pool had to be made


snorkel gear came on
now its time to play


just
 a
quick peek


ok...its a little cold


this one was convinced
and
decided to try
passing time
in a warmer manner


is it a bird
a plane
a fish
nope
a bug that hoped on board


with such a morning
one wee little one needed to sneak away
{just a little rest...mama}


now this my dear friends
is no joke
this older one
pulled l♥ve from a bag


i decided to wander
while one lay down to rest

life
dimishing by the hour
the heat of the sun can be too much


yet for a few
it is just what they need

to grow
to thrive


soon
before we are not quite ready
to let go

the sun slowly stars sinking
down below


little feet have joined us again
 anxiously awaiting
what nightfall will bring


the promise of warmth


the sight


the smell


the golden perfection


aaahhh

to taste such a treat


and
 have a moment to
savor

well now
this one is tired from all
though her adventure here has only begun
returning home with over 600 photos
she will have more to share with you tomorrow

~till then i hope you enjoyed a bit of our saturday~
